Jordany Valdespin reportedly made a fairly scurrilous accusation Sunday against Terry Collins. Rumor has it the Mets’ skipper is mulling a libel suit … Singer Carly Rae Jepsen is taking grief for her pathetic attempt to throw out the first pitch at Sunday’s Rays-Astros game. In fairness to Carly Rae, it wasn’t all that much worse than Obama’s throw/flip at the 2009 All-Star Game … J.Lo is drawing a lot of fire for reportedly hauling in $10 million in the last 18 months for performing for assorted despots. While she has focused mainly on Eastern European dictators, if she’s interested in branching out, she might want to apply for an upcoming dirty-money job a little closer to home: Singing “Feliz Compleanos” to Fidel Castro, who turns 87 next month.
